Zero Pass.
I Have just got this in the post. The Anachronist Zero Pass in anthracite leather.
This thing is NICE! Like really nice. The leather is soft and pliable. The hardware is quality and the comfort exceptional. First impressions are really good, my only real gripe is that it is a tad short for my wrist as I like to tuck the tail of the strap into the keeper. I can't do this unless I use the first keeper, but even this is mitigated by being able to get a better view of the lovely stitching on the last keeper.
Oh and the cost of postage, which bumps the price up to £100, an awful lot for a nato.
On first impressions though I don't regret the spend and would recommend it.

Nice, how big is your wrist? Try minimizing spacing between the keepers and the 12 lugs. We also updated international shipping rates so you have an economy option now 👍

Hi Max,
Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a go.
I'm afraid that I've never actually measured my wrist, but I am pretty sure it's larger than one Evan (cheap watch YouTuber reference there).
As for the economy shipping, a most welcome option, but I'm all about instant gratification and I guess if I buy several at once, it'll be less of an issue.
All the best with these straps though, they really are amongst the very best I've tried.
That’s great to hear in the quality though not to much of a surprise when it’s a project that Max is involved with. Hope your able to implement the tip from max on adjusting. Let see it in wrist on WRUW once you able to make the adjustments. 👍🏾

Yeah we measured these to fit 6-8" wrists to try and cover the best range. However at the upper limit, there won't be much left to tuck.

So just measured my wrist and it is quite large at 7 7/8".
I've been wearing this for 24 hours now and have some initial observations.
On my Seiko Monster, which I would normally wear on a double pass nato (or rubber, but the real comparison here is with other nato straps).
The watch now sits on my wrist, rather than above it, making it far more practical. I work as a signalman in an old fashioned lever-frame signalbox and do have issues with the head of my watch hitting the handle of the lever next to the one I'm using when wearing a double pass. Not yet managed to do it with this strap.
The other noticeable and I suppose, predictable thing is the total elimination of head wobble you get with a double pass.
I also still can't get over how damn good this thing looks.
So it looks fantastic, is extraordinary comfortable and is more practical ( other than the reduced security from a double pass).
Very well done Max.
I will be buying more.

Dude, a return customer is the best compliment I can get! Your wrist is definitely at the upper limit of who we designed it for 😅
